My Project

This year is my first year teaching a Transitional Kindergarten class. I have previously been in Special Education for the past four years. This year, I want to give my students a vibrant, fun, calm, safe, and exciting place to learn.

These materials such as the color printer and the laminator will help me better provide colorful and exciting projects that we can use again and again throughout the year and each year I continue teaching.

The snacks will help provide students with a snack just in case they aren't sent to school with one. Playdough will help enforce fine motor activity in the classroom.

I would love any support and help making this classroom the most exciting and safe place to learn where children can enjoy learning and have fun.
